Reminds me of an old Buddhist teaching I once read that goes something like this:
A man traveling down the road encounters a Buddha. Recognizing him, the traveler asks, “Are you a god?”
“No,” the Buddha replied.
“Are you a saint?”
“No.”
“Then are you a prophet?”
Exacerbated, the traveler asked, “Well, who are you, then?”
To which the Buddha replied, “I am awake.”
